It's the near future |
it's not the future. it's an alternate reality
|
It's post-apocalyptic |
There is no apocalypse |
It's dystopian |
Not exactly. More like totalitarian because you get squaded for talking about against the government.
The definition for dystopian is relating to or denoting an imagined state or society where there is great suffering or injustice.
Most boys ages 13-18 apply, but only 1 in 50 pass the physical, mental and essay test.
200 are chosen in the lottery, but they have two opportunities to backout.
If it were a dystopian, then 100 boys would be drafted by the government against their will.
|
Walkers are hand-picked |
Most males ages 13-18 apply. 1 in 50 passes the tests. 200 are chosen randomly from a lottery. 100 walkers, 100 backups |
Written as Richard Bachman |
King wrote it before he invented Bachman. Published as Bachman |
Wrong age range |
13-18 |
Calling walkers boys or teenagers |
age 18 is adult, age 19 is a teenager and too old |
Don't know warnings are based on a timer |
2-minute timer measures to 4 decimal places |
How warnings and tickets work |
warnings are issued when their 2-minute timer counts down to 90, 60, 30 and ticket at 0 |
Not allowed to stop or slow under 4 mph |
timer counts down when their speed in the correct direction falls under 4 mph |
Need to walk 4 mph |
Can walk faster than 4 mph, or slower, or stop for up to 1 minute 59.9999 seconds every 3 hours, if they lose the 3 warnings |
Lose a warning walk 4+ mph for 1 hour |
Lose a warning if they don't get a warning in 1 hour.
They can fall below 4 mph for up to 29.9999 seconds in that hour
If have 3 warnings (timer is 0.0001 to 30), timer resets to 60 (2nd warning)
If have 2 warnings (timer is 30.0001 to 60), timer resets to 90 (1st warning)
If have 1 warning (timer is 60.0001 to 90), timer resets to 120 (no warnings)
|
Don't understand difference between timer and violation warnings |
Timer-warnings are given every 30 seconds to let walker know how close they are to death (timer 0)
Violation-warnings are given when they break certain rules like Rule 8 No interference with your fellow Walkers.
Walking in the wrong direction and accepting aid like food and drink from spectators, will get you a violation-warning.
A violation-warning will cause your timer to drop instantly to the next warning on your timer, so 90, 60, 30 or ticket at 0.
|
Walkers get shot in the head |
They get shot in the back, gut and other places too |
It's televised |
It's televised from Augusta on |
There's a finish line |
There is no finish line |
It's cross-country |
They walk South starting in Maine next to the border with Canada. They get on route 1 South and stay on it until it's over.
Route 1 goes ends in Key West, Florida. It's impossible to get that far.

Assumptions about the Major's power or role in government |
We don't know what role the Major has in the government if any. He could just be an actor that is paid to play a role as a front man. |
Assumptions about the government |
We don't know about the government |
They get a prize if they win |
They also get money |
Tanks follow them |
No tanks, only halftracks |
Crowd only cheers for Maine's own Garraty |
Others get cheered too |

Missing The Regulators and Blaze
Stebbins read Garraty's mind twice! Marrying his mom and knowing the route
ages are 13-18
they also get money
they can backout
4 or more mph
they get warning if their 2-minute timer reaches 90, 60, 30
not out on 3rd warning
there is no 4th warning, only ticket when timer reaches 0
they get shot in the back, the gut, anywhere really
not just kids. Some are 18 so adults
they can stop and rest for nearly 2 minutes every 3 hours
they get a food belt every day at 9 am which they must ration
no weapons, no pain-killers, no roller-skates, no stimulants, no smartphones
they can get things from spectators, but they get a violation-warning
the start is not on TV. It's televised from Augusta on
we know they bet on the winner. we don't know if they bet on losers
backups can also back-out, so backups also replace backups
it's the Canadian border but we don't know if it's the most Northern part of Maine
route is mapped out to Florida and ends where ever it ends
we know the government is totalitarian because they squad those who speak against
it could be much longer than 20 years. We only know more than 17 years
Garraty stopped for nearly 2 minutes to be with his girlfriend and mom
you can stop for nearly 2 minutes every 3 hours
people stop to shit, get a stone out of their shoe, massage a cramp, etc
here are 10 reasons why they do it
there's always one winner
many have their reasons like Stebbins, Scramm and Barkovitch

43:54 21. Garraty told the story to Baker, McVries, and Stebbins

1:00:00 23. very much a Bachman ending
|
1. It's not the future. it's an alternate reality
2. 51 states. Excerpt "the most fucked-up state in the fifty-one"
3. Some, like Barkovitch, try to get others killed
4. They can go any speed they want. The Vanguard walks faster than 4 mph. If you tried to walk at exactly 4 mph
you would keep falling under 4 mph and your 2-minute timer would keep dropping. It is impossible for humans to walk at a specific speed
5. Their 2-minute timer counts down if they fall under 4 mph. A good strategy would be to sit down and rest for nearly 2 minutes,
then walk over 4 mph for 3 hours to remove your 3 warnings, then repeat
6. They get warnings when their timer counts down to 90, 60 or 30.
7. They are shot dead when their 2-minute timer reaches 0
8. There's no firing squad. Just soldiers. They can be shot by any number of soldiers. Sometimes just one.
9. Barkovitch
10. Larson said "I'm just resting. A guy can't walk all the time. Not all the time. Can he, fellas?"
11. Scramm said "Vegas odds made me the favorite just before the Walk started, Odds-on."
Stebbins had 9-to-1 odds. McVries said "Stebbins, Ray. Nothing can wear him down, he's like diamonds.
"The word is Vegas likes him nine-to-one now that Scramm's out of it."
12. Rank got himself killed by losing his temper. All Barkovitch did was insult him.
13. You're making an assumption based on what he said before. We don't really know why McVries sat down.
Perhaps he was in love with Garraty and decided to sacrafice his life for Garraty.
14. You're making an assumption. In my opinion, he would have never given up, and
tore out his own throat because his mind snapped and he went insane
15. It just says "He was skinny and blond". It does not say short or sickly looking. Barkovitch was short.
16. Garraty didn't consciously think this. It was a dream. Stebbins can read minds, so he knew about the dream, which is why he teased Garraty later.
17. Nothing came before The Long Walk. It's the first novel he wrote.
18. We don't know anything about the Major. Garraty's father said "the Major the rarest and most dangerous monster any nation can produce"
but that's heresay. The walkers need someone to blame, because they are not mature enough to take responsibility for their actions.
They volunteered for this. They had two chances to backout. They should be angry at themselves, but their too immature.
19. None of their family lives in those houses. Only their roommates.
20. It was only Garraty, and he only thought it, he didn't say it.
21. Baker was dead by this point
22. Garraty started falling asleep while telling the story and faded off. It was not abruptly ended.
23. King had not conceived of Richard Bachman when he wrote The Long Walk. So it's a young Stephen King ending.
If King had gotten it published, he might have gone on to focus on SciFi dystopian novels.

2:13 If they win, they get what ever they want for the rest of their lives
2:21 After you get 3 warnings, you get your ticket
2:30 Your ticket is getting shot in the head by military men
4:15 It's the first book he ever wrote as Richard Bachman
5:53 You have to sleep, crap and pee while you're walking
6:05 They walk for 5 days
8:41 Barkovitch is dead from tearing out his throat
but they shoot him anyway, because Double tap.
9:35 Baker asks Garraty to win.
9:53 McVries fell into a deep sleep, then walked into the crowd
|
1. They also get a large sum of money.
2. You don't automatically get your ticket after 3 warnings.
You get your ticket when your 2-minute timer reaches zero.
3. The soldiers don't always shoot them in the head. They get gut-shot, chest-shot, etc.
4. King did not invent his pen-name Richard Bachman until after he wrote The Long Walk.
He published The Long Walk under Richard Bachman, but he didn't write it as Richard Bachman.
5. You can sleep, crap or pee while not walking, but you must do it
before your 2-minute timer reaches zero or you are shot dead.
6. They started 9 am on Day 1 and finished 8 pm on Day 5. That's only 4 days 11 hours.
7. We don't know that Barkovitch was dead when the soldiers shot him. Here is the excerpt.
He fell down and they shot him, dead or alive.
8. The soldiers are required to shoot a walker when their timer reaches 0, whether they are dead or not.
Many other boys get shot after their dead including Olson and Stebbins. Sometimes they only get shot once.
9. Baker never asked Garraty to win. Baker says "If you win, will you do something for me?"
10. McVries dozed and walked toward the crowd, but did not walk into the crowd.
He sat down, and let his timer count down to zero, then the soldiers shot him.
If he walked into the crowd, he would have been shot as soon as he left the road.

It's actually an alternate reality set about 1979, since alternate past history is given
Age range is 13-18. 18 year old's are adults, not boys
Walk 4 or more mph or 2 minute timer counts down
They get warnings when their timer reaches 90, 60 or 30
There is no 4th warning. You buy your ticket when your timer reaches 0
They make up a warning every hour walking without a warning, meaning their timer resets back to 60, 90 or 120
They can stop for 1 minute and 59 seconds to do what ever they want including eat
use the toilet (they do stop to pee and poop)

2:57 three warnings and you get shot in the head
3:10 you get to 450 miles

What would be the 4th warning is when you get shot in the head
Warnings happen every 30 seconds so they are always within 2 minutes from dying
There is no finish line. No set miles. They actually walk about 415 miles.
They walk until there is only one survivor.

Walkers should have numbers, canteens and food-belts
It's not a race. There is no finish line. It's not about speed. It's a marathon
Major should have tanned face, the salt-and-pepper mustache, the mirrored sunglasses, simple khakis, and pistol strapped to a Sam Browne belt
They need to walk 4+ mph or their 2-minute timer counts down to 0 and they'll get a ticket
Curley should be walking slower otherwise they'd all get warnings
Ticket is given 30 seconds after 3rd warning if speed stays below 4 mph
